In 2002, Pares published two stories in the due South zineDuet, The Whole Enchilada with Laura Shapiro, and a solo effort, Head Case. 2006 saw her SGA fic ...and the green sea in the multifandom online SummerCon Zine, and in 2007 she contributed Mr. Karaoke to the Stargate Atlantis zine Surfacing. Continuing her multimedia trend, in 2007 she recorded her SGA fic Ophthalmology as a podfic.[1]

Though her output of fic has slowed over the years, she's still a frequent participant in Yuletide, where she can be found writing as kormantic.

Writing style

Pares is a versatile writer with wide range and a deft touch, able to write short, nuanced character pieces or longer plot-driven stories. She's written gen, het, slash, threesomes, and foursomes in a variety of fandoms and is always true to the characters and their voices. One of her skills is capturing a scene using just the right details.

mergatrude describes her style in due South Author Profiles: "Pares writes wonderful characterisations, without glossing over the scars and bruises. [In due South] she swung both Rays before it became popular and moves easily between gen, het and slash." [2]
